Incredibly, Justin's still raking in awards for the Skrillex and Blood-produced "Sorry," released in October 2015. The song took Best Song, beating out songs including Adele's "Hello" and Rihanna's "Work" featuring Drake. Bieb also won Best Canadian Act over Drake, Alessia Cara, The Weeknd and Shawn Mendes. And in proof that Beliebers are still one of the most fervent fan groups around, they voted Justin winner in the Biggest Fans category.

However, the night didn't belong solely to Justin, who wasn't at the Rotterdam, Netherlands ceremony hosted by Bebe Rexha (he performed "What Do You Mean?" at the Milan-based EMA show in 2015, despite a broken ear drum sustained in a wave boarding mishap). "Treat You Better" singer Mendes bested Justin Bieber in the Best Male category. Lady Gaga won both Best Female and Best Look. That pink Joanne hat's working for ya, Gaga.
